Oh no another one .Different to the one I received
The message was that Mrs Frances Connolly and her husband had decided to give £2.5 million to 10 Health Unlocked members I was one of the lucky ones and should get in touch by email in order to receive my share !
Well I can't believe you turned down such a generous offer. Just think of all the ampoules you could buy with that kind of money 😆
I hate spam. How dishonorable people can be. Yesterday, I also received a similar message but under a different name (FRAN89900).
It's a good idea of yours to share this here 👍.
Same here, I saw on my emails FRAN89900 has sent you a message on healthunlocked… I clicked and nothing there, obviously I have now missed out on my cut…. I’m absolutely gutted … damn it 😂
so have I 3 hours ago!!!!!!!!!! I have reported it as Scam shame these people cant put the same effort into raising some money for research instead of being a scammer
I had this too. Reported and deleted!

Have also reported this person (FRAN89900 aka Mrs Frances Connelly) for offering me 1/10th of £2.5 million. I was also one of the lucky ones chosen.
Well, so that's 5 of us. Halfway through, how's that panning out ? Let's hope this scam peters out with us - and Mrs Connelly gives up her hobby. Sorry, I'm afraid that'll also be a no from me.
Let’s hope that she/ he now knows that we are wise to the scam .
...... and doesn't reinvent him/herself, and come up with a different story !
Unfortunately most of these scammers are young men based in the far east or Africa. Many of them are part of what amounts to a factory industry. As you've already mentioned, they will continue to pop up in different guises. There's an excellent book on this subject (albeit romance scammers) by Becky Holmes called Keanu Reeves is not in love with you. It's a real eye opener on how the industry works - albeit not for the sensitive reader...
Yes plenty of this rubbish circulating and they are not based in other countries… right here in the amazing U.K ‘dumpster’ as the Americans calls it…. Was once Great Britain now just a great bin…. Of all the worlds trash…
I just this morning I awoke to a message from my partner asking if it was me who bought something from Argos for exactly £50 …. Nope sorry hunny not me, he’s now frozen his card and now has to wait for the bank to decipher how the payment was made …. Told my partner to close the account anyway after they have returned the money!!! Banks pretend to protect you but they cover themselves with small print, trying to claim back fraudulent transactions is nearly impossible, we learnt the hard way when a spoof company took 1200 out of our account, this company is still doing this to to this day, under the guise of 4 different names!! The bank said there isn’t anything they can do because we allowed the payment, the financial ombudsman investigated and agreed the company looked suspicious but said they couldn’t do anything but advise us to go back to the bank, the payment had a time sensitive period, this was out of date by this time ( because this country is so speedy 😒) was actually told its near impossible by the ombudsman to claim money back following process by the bank, especially Mastercard…
They allow and facilitate these type of criminals ….. it’s all down to tick boxing!!! This could try loves it’s tick boxes.
I’m really sorry to hear of those awful things that have happened to you and your partner . I’ve had 2 scam emails this morning already. I’m sure that more could be done to protect us from these criminals . They really can ruin peoples lives . I’m 88 years old and I’m sure if they find out your age , you get more scams , because they know that older people are not so canny when it comes to the internet, as it’s something of a foreign entity that they haven’t grown up with . With all this talk of A.I. why isn’t there a more fool proof system to protect us from these criminals.?
Begs the question about how ‘truely wonderful?’ Technology actually is? I personally this it’s become too big for anyone to take control of and it’s just a perfect place for every walk of life… the amazing things that can be done vs the life wrecking , life ending stories will forever be prevalent so long as the internet and ‘technology’ is around….
The world turned without it and it seems as though it’s an aweful mess with it.
Yes , I agree . It’s really sad ,
